We value our members, donors and others who support the National Committee and its work by visiting our web sites. We know that protecting personal information is important. This privacy policy applies to all the National Committee's web sites - www.ncpssm.org , entitledtoKnow.org and mycommittee.org. To make our Privacy Policy easy to find, we provide it in the footer of every page of our sites.

What Information We Collect and How We Use That Information:

Our registration forms require users to give us contact information that may include name, email address, message format preference (HTML vs . Text), address and other information. We do not retain or store sensitive information we may request from our visitors, such as credit card. Credit card information is never retained in our systems.

Security

All information provided to the National Committee is transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL is a proven coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt or scramble data before you send it to us. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our site that is only accessible to certain qualified employees of National Committee. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we do our very best to protect your information, we cannot guarantee it.

With constant development of new online tools, the National Committee reserves the right to amend without notice this Privacy Policy by posting such changes on this site. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting. We will post changes here, so please check back periodically. Changes will take effect when posted and your continued use of the site will constitute your agreement to the changes.

Internet Protocol (IP) Address

We collect an IP address from all visitors to our site. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP address information to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our site, analyze trends, track users' movement, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve the site, and deliver customized, personalized content. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
